Tap or drag cells to fill them. Switch to Mark mode to X out empty cells. Match every row and column clue to reveal the picture.
Nonogram — also known as Picross, Griddlers or Hanjie — is a logic puzzle where numbers hide a picture. Every row and every column carries a string of numbers, and those numbers tell you exactly how the filled squares in that line are grouped. Read them carefully and a hidden image emerges, square by square.
The clue 4 1 2 means a run of four filled cells, then a gap, then one, then a gap, then two, always in that order from left to right or top to bottom. Cross-reference what a row tells you against what a column tells you, and cell by cell the certainties pile up. Mark the squares you know are empty to keep your deductions clear.
Every puzzle here is generated to be solved by pure logic — you never have to guess. Pick a five, ten or fifteen grid, fill the cells the numbers demand, and watch the picture appear. Completed rows and columns dim their clues so you always know where you stand.
Each row and column has number clues describing the runs of filled cells in that line. Fill the squares that satisfy every clue, and a hidden picture is revealed.
Each number is the length of one solid run of filled cells, listed in order. Runs are separated by at least one empty cell. '3 2' means three filled, a gap, then two filled.
Mark mode places an X on cells you have deduced are empty. X marks are just a thinking aid — they do not count toward the picture, but they make the logic far easier to see.
Yes. Every puzzle here is generated and verified to be solvable by logic alone, with exactly one solution — careful deduction always gets you there.
